Lin Fa Temple, Buddhist temple in Tai Hang, Hong Kong.

The temple features a half-octagonal front hall with double-eaved roof, connecting to a rectangular main hall built on exposed granite rocks.

The temple, constructed in 1863 during the Qing dynasty, stands on Lotus Rock where locals reported sightings of the goddess Kwun Yam.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the temple serves as the starting point for the Fire Dragon Dance, a ritual involving a dragon made of joss sticks.

Visitors can access the temple through two side staircases at the ends of the front hall, where a central balustrade marks the main facade.

The temple houses hundreds of pink lotus-shaped lamps in a dedicated chamber, symbolizing prosperity and protection for worshippers.
